BIOMECHANICAL FACTORS TO BE TAKEN INTO ACCOUNT TO PREVENT INJURIES AND IMPROVE SPORTING PERFORMANCE ON ARTIFICIAL TURF
2009
This article reviews existing knowledge concerning the epidemiology, instruments and regulatory criteria currently used to evaluate artificial turf soccer pitches. Recent years have seen tremendous growth in the use of artificial turf as a playing surface for sports (rugby, soccer, American football…) and the problems traditionally associated with artificial turf and its relationship with a higher percentage of injuries seem to be disappearing. The contribution of biomechanics to the development of new techniques and instruments for analysing the properties and characteristics of grass pitches has contributed towards close collaboration with the regulatory bodies of different sporting organ…
Enquête sur les archives ouvertes françaises menée par Couperin en 2019 : résultats et analyses
2020
French Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) are, for 89% of the respondents to the survey, now having their own open repository, or declaring to be in the implementation phase (compared to 82% in 2017 and only 62% in 2014). It can therefore be considered that almost all HEIs now offer a green open access repository or signalling solution to their researchers. The « still in progress » or suspended projects are rather related to the current recomposition of the Higher Education landscape. The most obvious obstacles to the latest implementations remain both the low involvement of researchers in the project and the human resources allocated. There is a slight but real increase in the rate of i…
Enquête Archives Ouvertes COUPERIN 2017 : résultats de l’enquête
2017
Les archives ouvertes s’inscrivent de plus en plus solidement et durablement dans le paysage documentaire de l’enseignement supérieur. Si les organismes de recherche ont été précurseurs pour la création d’archives ouvertes, les grandes écoles, mais surtout les universités ont désormais massivement rejoint le mouvement. Signe de cette progression notable, 82 % des répondants disposent en 2017 d’une archive en production ou en cours de mise en œuvre, contre 62 % en 2014. L’adoption majoritaire de la plate-forme HAL (qui représente 79 % des archives en production et 84 % des archives des universités parmi les répondants) se renforce encore depuis 2014. La structuration d’un réseau des utilisat…

Area‐Selective Atomic Layer Deposition on Functionalized Graphene Prepared by Reversible Laser Oxidation
2022
Publisher Copyright: © 2022 The Authors. Advanced Materials Interfaces published by Wiley-VCH GmbH. Area-selective atomic layer deposition (ALD) is a promising “bottom-up” alternative to current nanopatterning techniques. While it has been successfully implemented in traditional microelectronic processes, selective nucleation of ALD on 2D materials has so far remained an unsolved challenge. In this article, a precise control of the selective deposition of ZnO on graphene at low temperatures (<250 °C) is demonstrated. Maskless femtosecond laser writing is used to locally activate predefined surface areas (down to 300 nm) by functionalizing graphene to achieve excellent ALD selectivity (up to…
<title>Electrochromism in oxyfluoride thin films</title>
1994
Oxyfluoride films based on W and Ti were prepared by reactive sputtering in plasmas containing O2 + CF4. The deposition rate was large, particularly when chemical sputtering was promoted by heating the target. The films could show large charge insertion/extraction, high coloration efficiency, and good cycling durability.© (1994) COPYRIGHT SPIE--The International Society for Optical Engineering.

Confident methods for the evaluation of the hydrogen content in nanoporous carbon microfibers
2012
Abstract Nanoporous carbon microfibers were grown by chemical vapor deposition in the vapor-liquid solid mode using different fluid hydrocarbons as precursors in different proportions. The as-grown samples were further treated in argon and hydrogen atmospheres at different pressure conditions and annealed at several temperatures in order to deduce the best conditions for the incorporation and re-incorporation of hydrogen into the microfibers through the nanopores. Since there are some discrepancies in the results on the hydrogen content obtained under vacuum conditions, in this work, we have measured the hydrogen content in the microfibers using several analytical methods in ambient conditi…
A new approach to the growth of ZnO by vapour transport
2005
The crystal growth of ZnO by vapour transport is classically made in presence of additional species which enhance the growth process. Usually, additional species have been considered as chemical transport agents that promote a typical CVT (Chemical Vapour Transport) process. Recently, we have proposed a new interpretation of the chemical role of some of these species. This new interpretation considers that, in some cases, the additional species promote a partial consumption of the O2 provided by the ZnO decomposition and, consequently, a Zn excess is generated. This excess of Zn pressure activates the ZnO decomposition and the growth rate is enhanced. Among those species, carbon shows an ad…
Artes marciales japonesas: prácticas corporales representativas de su identidad cultural
2011
La implantación y difusión de las artes marciales japonesas en Occidente supuso la importación de prácticas socioculturales privadas de las premisas de su contexto de origen. ¿Cómo afrontar estas prácticas que son ajenas a nuestra identidad cultural? Una interpretación estricta exige entenderlas como prácticas corporales con una idiosincrasia cultural, caracterizadas por incorporar una experiencia vivencial en la que el cuerpo ocupa un lugar preeminente. Su enseñanza y aprendizaje se establecen a través de un sistema triangular integrado por una esencia espiritual, una forma técnica y una estructura física (sin-gi-tai), que se inserta en un proceso singular (shu-ha-ri).
Distal Arthrogryposis type 5 in an Italian family due to an autosomal dominant gain-of-function mutation of the PIEZO2 gene
2022
Abstract Background Arthrogryposis multiplex congenita (AMC) is a group of clinically and etiologically heterogeneous conditions, characterized by prenatal onset contractures affecting two or more joints. Its incidence is about 1 in 3000 live births. AMC may be distinguished into amyoplasia, distal and syndromic arthrogryposis. Distal arthrogryposis (DA) predominantly affects hands and feet. It is currently divided into more than ten subtypes (DA1, DA2A/B, DA3–10), based on clinical manifestations, gene mutations and inheritance pattern. Among them, only a few patients with DA5 have been reported. It is associated to a gain-of-function pathogenic variant of the PIEZO2 gene, encoding for an …
